I did double the exercise today! Well, kind of. I went to the pool to swim some laps, and I didn't swim as long I did on Friday or Saturday. After I left, I can home to do some Insanity abs. It went well overall, nothing really exciting to report. I think I'm getting better at the swim workout. The first time I worked out in the pool, I went one lap and I was already out of breath. This time, I was able to go two times without running out of breath. It felt good. It rained earlier today so the pool was nice and cool, too!
As far as my eating habits today, VERY healthy...and yummy. I made my sister and I a strawberry kiwi smoothie and I didn't overeat that much. I just had a small lunch with a lot of fruit. Strawberries, kiwis, and peaches! The plate looked so pretty and colorful!
I wore jeans today because of the rain, and they were a lot looser! If I keep getting rid of this weight, I might have to go shopping again. I'm not sorry at all! In fact, we went shopping today. I wasn't able to get a size smaller, but I'm going to get there. Soon. Maybe not by the time I go back to school, but a month after that? That's if I work out every day. Maybe a month and a half after that.
Today's just a happy day so this quote makes sense! "Happiness is not something ready made. It comes from your own actions." -Dalai Lama. I CAN NOT wait to go back to the doctor for my yearly checkup. She's not very forgiving when it comes to being overweight, which I guess I understand. She gives disappointed looks and you can practically hear the "tsk, tsk". I can't wait to show her how I've been getting healthy! Just one more person I get to prove wrong!
Tomorrow's going to be fun! I'm going rock climbing with friends! What a workout!
Have a good day!!! ~Emily B.

  1. Yay! Are you planning to get new rain boots this year? I'm sure those will feel looser too :)
